Why do you want to be moderator?
I want to become moderator because I frequent the Shaiya forum a lot and see that it needs a more active mod. The forum needs to be cleaned up a lot to stop the confusion. I believe that I am a big part of the community there now; I also believe I have a lot of first hand knowledge in the game and of the game (game mods and such) that would allow me to be a big help.
How much experience do you have with the issue from the forum you apply for a moderator job?
As stated above I play the game so I have the experience from that. I also one of the few people researching and providing mods and programs for the game, I am also working with the others who do the same. I’m a strong believer in that knowledge should be free. I try my best to share the knowledge that I have to help others or at least point them in the right direction.
Do you have enough time to visit the board about every two days and to put enough effort into the job?
I believe I do, I’m on there at least every other day, but most of the time I’m on here multiple times per day. I work a very relaxed computer job during the day so I find myself frequently on these forums.
Did you take part there before you sent your application?
Yes I have. I started just viewing the forum for awhile, reading through all the stickies, all the post and learning as much as I could before I started to post. That’s when I realized that there needs to be a more active moderator in that forum, cause from my first hand experience there was a lot of out dated material on there that was causing confusion.
Are you able to handle questions and questioners of which you think that they are very stupid?
Yes I do, I like to help end confusion and point people in the right direction. I believe that no question is stupid, but there are stupid answers, and most of the time those simple repeated questions could be prevented from being asked if the forums was easier to find updated information.
Can you act appropriate/mature with other human beings?
I sure can, most of the time, you know that at times you just can’t help but be direct with some people. Other than the very few exceptions, I am good with people, seeing that I have a real life job that requires me to be!
Have you ever operated as a moderator before?
Yes I have, on a few other smaller forums. I used to me a general moderator on a computer programming forum that ended up shutting down, and I was also an admin moderator for a forum that I helped co create, but that isn’t near the size of this website.
Anyways, please review my application and look at my post on the forum, I know my post and thank count are lower but I know I can be a big help to the community.
Thanks

PS. Please keep in mind that I'm applying for the Shaiya Section Moderator, Which the Shaiya section is quite small, meaning that I don't get the opportunity to response and make many posts, which is why my post count is low. I am however very active and helpful in that section which you can see if you check it out.
